I really don't understand why he isn't going into the draft this year. If I were him, I would draft this year because the QB class is so weak, he would be more likely to go in the 1st after riding all the hype of back to back NCs.

Let him stay. Better for Texans. Could you imagine Jacksonville or Tennessee picking him up and we having to play him and Luck? More likely Arizona or Cleveland would get him first. I would rather hedge the bet and have him come out next year and hope a good college QB falls to us at 32. Draft order below.

I was speaking more to Mccarron's position, rather than the Texans. He seemingly would become one of the top 3 QBs in this draft with all the hype after that NC game, and could make a lot more money in 2013 than he would in 2014. Not sure his stock could get much higher next year, and he might end up in Matt Barkley's position.

If he played in a different system. Lets go with West Vriginia's system, he would put up number's equal too or better than Geno Smith while winning more games. He is that good.

It doesn't seem so far fetched that maybe the kid grew up loving and respecting the Bama legacy. Now he is creating one of his own and he wants it to be the best. Legacy's are important to some people, Peyton, and Andrew Luck passed up being the number one pick to try and win NCAA championship's fairly recently.

I think he is helped more by playing behind a near perfect OL, with talented skill positions all over the place. If anything his flaws are hidden at alabama.

Saban is still well connected with the pros and my personal speculation is that Sabin knows the kid is not currently considered a 1st round lock and advised the family so. Not that these guys have all the answers, but i have not seen McCarren talked about being a high draft pick anywhere, but in this thread. Again, I happy to watch him next year and see if i am wrong.

I wasn't knocking your post. Yours is more intelligent, mine us more selfish.
